Adulthood


Time spins as words collide Baby dolls turn to a world too wide It was no longer black and white It was imperfect in my sight Multiplying evolves to taxes Outer beauty is more attractive Meditating to accept inner self Learn to place self-esteem on a higher shelf Monkeybars are social and industrial ladders Those racing to the top has no manners Only because they slid into debt Trapezing back in forth with no net Politics are no longer a bore Voting can't be ignored Disney Channel and Nick are now CNN and Channel 7 latest flick Knowledge is a massive power My spirituality blossomed to a flower Mistakes have been known and realized Used to give my future self advice Sometimes with a book in hand, I think Who is this person I've managed to ink My younger self would be proud to interlink
